| adam_text | Matthew Carter s Myth of the Western provides rich,
detailed readings of exemplary Westerns from critical periods
of the genre s history. More important, he analyzes the
scholarship on the Western^ including the perspectives of New
Western History
ђ
and deconstructs the division of the genre
into classical, revisionist^ and post Westerns.
Patrick McGee, William A. Read Professor of English, Louisiana State University
What is the nature of the relationship between the Hollywood Western
and American frontier mythology? How have Western films helped develop
cultural and historical perceptions, attitudes and beliefs towards the frontier?
Is there still a place for the genre in light of revisionist histories of the
American West?
Myth of the Western re-invigorates the debate surrounding the relationship
between the Western and frontier mythology, arguing for the importance
of the genre s socio-cultural, historical and political dimensions. Taking a
number of critical-theoretical and philosophical approaches, Matthew Carter
applies them to prominent forms of frontier historiography. He also considers
the
historiographie
element of the Western by exploring the different
ways in which the genre has responded to the issues raised by the frontier.
Carter skilfully argues that the genre has
-
and continues to reveal
-
the
complexities and contradictions at the heart of US society.
With its clear analyses of and intellectual challenges to the film scholarship
that has developed around the Western over a 65-year period, this book adds
new depth to our understanding of specific film texts and of the genre as a
whole
-
a welcome resource for students and scholars in both Film Studies
and American Studies.
Matthew Carter teaches film studies, US literature and critical theory at the
University of Essex.
